‘Racist’ to Remember the Victims of the 1972 Olympic Jihad Attacks?

When the International Olympic Committee turned down a request to hold a moment of silence for the Israeli athletes murdered by Palestinian jihadists at the 1972 Munich Olympics, unnoticed in the furor was the shocking moral inversion in the statement from Jibril Rajoub, President of the Palestinian Olympic Committee. In explaining why he opposed the moment of silence, Rajoub said: “Sports are meant for peace, not for racism… Sports are a bridge to love, interconnection, and spreading of peace among nations; it must not be a cause of division and spreading of racism between them [nations].”

Rajoub’s statement strikingly paralleled Islamic supremacist rhetoric about “Islamophobia” in labeling any commemoration of the victims of the Munich jihad attacks “racist” — as if the jihad murderers who perpetrated the attacks, including Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas, were the real victims. So the purveyors of “Islamophobia” identify the opponents of jihadist Jew-killers and persecutors of Christians as “bigots” and the destroyers of civility in the world today.

In line with this, Rajoub praised IOC President Jacques Rogge’s refusal to hold a moment of silence: “[Rogge] said that his position not to politicize sports, and his determination to implement the International Olympic Charter represents a victory for freedom in sports.” Of course, it wasn’t those who requested the moment of silence who were “politicizing sports”; the Munich assassins did that forty years ago when they murdered Israeli athletes in order to advance a religious and political cause. Mirroring the way in which Islamic supremacists habitually deploy charges of “Islamophobia,” Rajoub (and Rogge) shifted responsibility from the Palestinian murderers to their Jewish victims.

Last February, Islamic supremacist writer Reza Aslan provided a telling example of this twisted mindset. “Attitudes towards Muslims in the United States are getting progressively more and more bigoted,” he claimed during an address at Colgate University. “Two-thirds of Americans don’t think Muslims should have the same rights or civil liberties as non-Muslims….It is not the result of a slow-moving grassroots sentiment. On the contrary, this is the result of a very well-organized, well-funded campaign by a handful of far-right extremist groups (Jihad Watch and Stop Islamization of America) to convince Americans that Islam is the enemy.”

Jihad Watch and Stop Islamization of America: that’s essentially Pamela Geller and me. Did Aslan actually expect the Colgate students to believe that two people are responsible for the alleged “surge in anti-Muslim sentiment”? Obviously, any actual rise in “anti-Muslim sentiment,” or in rightful suspicion of Islamic jihadists and supremacists, is not due to anything we have done, but rather to the activities of Muslims such as Naser Abdo, the would-be second Fort Hood jihad mass murderer; and Khalid Aldawsari, the would-be jihad mass murderer in Lubbock, Texas; and Muhammad Hussain, the would-be jihad bomber in Baltimore; and Mohamed Mohamud, the would-be jihad bomber in Portland; and Faisal Shahzad, the would-be Times Square jihad mass-murderer; and Abdulhakim Mujahid Muhammad, the Arkansas military recruiting station jihad murderer; and Naveed Haq, the jihad mass murderer at the Jewish Community Center in Seattle; and Mohammed Reza Taheri-Azar, the would-be jihad mass murderer in Chapel Hill, North Carolina; Ahmed Ferhani and Mohamed Mamdouh, who hatched a jihad plot to blow up a Manhattan synagogue; and Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, the would-be Christmas airplane jihad bomber; and many others like them who have plotted and/or committed mass murder in the name of Islam and are motivated by its texts and teachings — all in the U.S. in the last couple of years.

Yeah well how about a moment of silence for the thousands of palestinians that israel has killed? And the tends of millions of russians that khazar jew bolsheviks killed in the 20th century? Oh no we don’t want to talk about that. And how you killed theson of god. Wanna get j ew wise? I encourage all you goys to visit davidduke.com.

Samual

You’re a lying anti-Semite, DeShawn. Palestinian terrorists deliberately murdered Israeli athletes at the Munich Olympics. What Palestinians Israel has killed over the years have either been terrorists or were accidental deaths during the pursuit of terrorists who hide among civilians The Jewish State does NOT target civilians. Most Bolsheviks were gentiles, and the so-called Jews in the upper ranks were mostly atheists; they most certainly weren’t acting on behalf of “the Jews” (indeed, Soviet Russia was quite anti-Semitic). I won’t even dignify your last allegation about deicide. Now go play in traffic, you Jew-hating scumbucket.

aspacia

Bolsheviks were atheists "I hate all gods." (Marx) Muslims have massacred more Muslims than any Western or Israeli Entity. David Duke is a joke.

"And how you killed theson of god. Wanna get j ew wise? I encourage all you goys to visit davidduke.com. "

Everyone had their part in it. The Romans nailed Him to the cross, Jews arrested Him and those that said they believed in Him and would support Him, abandoned Him.

My minister (Lutheran) had a sermon on this very thing and pretty much said the same thing. He also said, had we been there we may have participated as well. In sum, your answer above is five star, excellent.

JoJoJams

It's more interesting then that, if people more deeply think about the theological statements and implications. Why did Jesus die? Aren't we told that he died for our sins, like the "sacrificial lamb", and that through him, we are cleansed of our sins, that we may be blameless before G-d?
If this is true – as any Christian would state that it is – what this means is that Jesus was killed BY ME AND YOU!! The instruments to carry it out may have been the Romans and Jewish people of the time, but if he died for our sins, then it is WE who killed him, each and every one of us. That is pure logic applied to the doctrine, and what its full implications are….

I'm not religious. but I like your poetic approach to it, which is spiritual, as it should be IMHO. than literal which has no real ground.

By believing anything David Duke says you have negated your position. I do find it rather funny that leftists are embracing the words of a former KKK leader. It brings to mind something about true colors…

DeSHlTler,

Here is a video of your fellow Sacks of SHlTler SURRENDERED, UNCONDITIONALLY, to the US, UK and Commies.

"I encourage all you goys to visit davidduke.com" That quote,DeShawn,just discredited you from ANY serious discussion of this topic. You've also revealed yourself to be a vile bigot. I hope you disappear from these comments because you don't add anything useful to them.

Jake

First of all, DeShawn, the Jews didn't kill the son of G-d. The Romans did and they couldn't have done it if He hadn't gone willingly to die for YOU AND ME. Why is it when the Israelis defend themselves from attacks, they are always the bad guys?

As to the Bolsheviks, check out some facts before you shoot off your mouth… Sure there were some Jews – 10%. That leaves 90% Russian and whatever.

UCSPanther

Yeah. David Duke is a real credible source, never mind that he has a history of bilking idiots like you out of your money, and he has to work in Ukraine because his chosen line of work has no openings over here.

I don't know why you even bother posting your garbage here, freak. It gets you nowhere.

How about a moment of silence for all the thousands of Jews killed by muslimes in the Mid-East in the pogroms of Baghdad or Jerusalem and the three separate invasions of Israel initiated by muslimes w/the express purpose of pushing the Jews into the sea?

http://twitter.com/ygalg @ygalg

khazar jew bolsheviks murdered jesus?

you referring to david duke, who tweeted "the only Nazi country in the world is Israel." The Pot Calling The Kettle Black? the staunch advocate of david irving, a nazi sympathizer? perhaps david duke rethinking, israel is kind of country to his like? someone should tell him, its not. not even near to his like (a nazi that is).

This is part and parcel of ALL muslims , no matter alleged "moderates " expressing sympathy " at the end of the day muslims ALWAYS blame their victims ….or "someone else " .
On a muslim blog , during an "America bashing fest " I asked the question , " WHO was now doing the killing in Iraq , given in the past weeks 400 were killed and 1500 wounded in acts of terror " …answer ? The US , it's our fault that their sectarian violence is spinning out of control .
When asked if they cconsider the Bulgarian Bus Bombing was an act of terrorism , commited by terrorists ….silence , as of yet no one has answered . That particular blog is made up mostly of muslims in the U.K. and the U .S.

It's rather apparent that the Olympics have become another tenacle of the NWO and a good reason to avoid it at all costs.

On a seperate note – from what I have heard – it's been quite the disaster.

It would do WELL for Matt Lauer to shut the heck up. I have never seen such fawning over average athletes in my life. What a co·los·sal waste of money. Let's just get to the closing ceremonies already.

Rigged finals participants in mulitple events.
Empty seats.

Appeals process an utter joke.
MI5 super computer crashed and there is no way to track terrorists.
3 terrorists entered the country before games began.
G4S security meltdown.
TSA at British airports.
Military called up to handle security.

That's a partial list.

Falcon, I do believe you are right on…. Dead give-away was opening ceramony when the Brits celebrated their dreadful, socialized medicine. Yep, I am speaking from experience, too.

Don’t you just get tired of hearing the same old B.S. I think these people have outworn their excuses and I know none believe them anymore. If it were not for the West supporting this Thugocracy, they would have faded into history a long time ago.

★FALCON★

It's analogous to the liberals supporting the USSR (communism) until it collasped under it's own weight. Now liberals are falling over themselves to prop up Islam as a counter balance to the West.

Liberals love to meddle without fear of reprisal.

pagegl

They should have a fear of reprisal; the reprisals that they will suffer if their Muslim allies succeed in imposing Sharia on the world. Then again, as is typical of the left, they believe that all that bad stuff won't happen to them.

Kufar Dawg

Is it the West supporting the islamic thugogracy, or is the islamic thugogracy buying out the West, a piece at a time through the use of vast amounts of monopolized petrodollars, petropounds, petrofrancs etc.?

Ann

Mach, America has kept the globe stable since her existence. Since Obama, well, thats another story…. Interesting is the fact that all we get back for all that we have given the world, is grief. Even the Brits have acted despicable lately…. But when it comes to Jibril Rajoub, I would have been surprised had he done the right thing. BTW, thats a Palestinian for you.

It was utterly disgraceful that Halal meat was served at the Olympics. Once again, UK leaders bowed low to Islam’s god.

Christian Olympians Get Islamic Halal Meat
the American Olympic team, which includes many devout Christians and followers of other faiths, are unknowingly eating meat sacrificed with the same words used by the 9/11 mass murderers as they hurtled into the World Trade Centre. Athletes representing France, where Islamic terrorists recently killed Jewish children outside a school, are also being force-fed Halal meat by London 2012 officials. http://britishfreedom.org/christian-olympic-athle…

Ann

The Brits deserve what they get. They have bowed down low to Islam's god now for a long time. No wonder they have security problems and cannot even leave out city trash cans for fear of jihad terrorism.

LindaRivera

It is British leaders who bow down low to Islam's god. NOT the British people! THERE IS A HUGE DIFFERENCE!

Kufar Dawg

Ditto for the USA, it's our leaders (both in politics and the MSM) who have sold out their souls, morality and ethics to islamofascist dollars.

LindaRivera

Absolutely correct!

LindaRivera

It is despicable. Muslims are immigrants to Britain! Not indigenous Brits! Yet, UK leaders, supermarkets, butchers, restaurants, cafes and the food production and catering industry eagerly bow down to the very cruel and merciless god of Islam.

If Muslims want animals slaughtered with terrible cruelty, there are 56 Muslim countries Muslims can live in. Britain is NOT a Muslim country. It is unforgivable that a non-Muslim country would willingly allow animals to suffer great agony. It is a shocking abandonment of our far superior, and extremely merciful Western civilization, of treating all of God’s creation, people, and animals, with love and kindness.

Shame on the British and New Zealand governments for bowing low to Islam’s god and allowing such horrible cruelty.

LindaRivera

t was utterly unforgivable that at the London Olympics, they refused to grant a one-minute silence for the Israeli athletes slain by the death-god worshipers at the Munich Olympic Games. Their blood cries out!

It will never be forgotten that PLO/Palestinian Authority leader, Abbas, financed the massacre of the Israeli athletes. Why is this evil man welcomed and honored in Western countries. Why is he not in jail for his wicked crime? Why is he and the Palestinian Authority Occupation Forces supported and financed by America and other Western countries?

This is what U.S. District Court Judge William Young said to convicted terrorist ‘shoe bomber’ Richard Reid:

“We do not negotiate with terrorists. We do not meet with terrorists. We do not sign documents with terrorists. We hunt them down one by one and bring them to justice.”

Kufar Dawg

I agree. After all, it was only ONE MINUTE of silence, 60 seconds and they couldn't fit it in? Screw 'em. I don't think I'll be watching any Olympics ever again.

katharina40

We must have new brave lawyers and legal organizations to convict these kind of organizations or any leaders especially political leaders who are committing or supporting injustice through indirect or direct actions, for Crimes against Humanity or based on discrimination laws such as against women/girls or minority ethnic groups, in more effective International Courts. OIC who are allowing Islamic Dictators to set the agenda of OIC, is complicit in such Crime against Humanity. Or countries like Saudi Arabia and Qatar who are sending only one female Athlete (which is clearly pathetic hypocrisy and tokenistic) and discriminating against non-Muslims must be convicted for discrimination and kicked out of the Olympic Games (there are non-Muslims in this countries). And OIC must be convicted for discriminating against the Israelis/Jews who were mass murdered in the Olympic Games in submitting to the Islamic countries´ demand!

Kufar Dawg

I get the feeling more lawyers are working for islamofascism through lawfare than against it. Because deep, islamofascist pockets speak louder than empty ideals.

RoguePatriot6

“Sports are meant for peace,"

Then why is Jibril Rajoub, involved in it.

"not for racism"

Then quit your war against Israel and stop trying to devise new ways of exterminating Jews. In other words, practice what you preach. Quit attacking Israel and accusing them of terrorism when they retaliate.

In short, quit what you accuse others of doing.

Amen RoguePatriot6 !!

Since Hitler's pal,Avery Brundage FORCED two Jewish-American Olympians to STAY HOME from the 1936 Berlin Olympics(Marty Glickman & Sam Stoller) > to the 1973 MASSACRE of Israel's Athletes and NO stopping of the games> to NOW,the Olympics has been the Quadrennial SHOWCASE of JEW-HATRED.

I guess the anti-Muslim sentiment has nothing to do with 9-11, Al Qaeda, Taliban, The Muslim Brotherhood, Louis Farahitler, Hezballah or any of the others who have expressed their undying hatred for America and it's culture or values. The countless terrorist threats against the U.S. and it's citizens or the repeated attempts to inflict mass casualties upon innocent civilians has nothing at all to do with it. Anti-Muslim sentiment has nothing to do with the riots conducted all over Europe over an artist's dipiction of Muhammad or the things such as the firebombing of a French magazine store over some comments made about Muhammad or Islam? This latest resentment has nothing at all to do with their archaic treatment of women?

Wow, I owe Islamists an engraved apology. I must have had it all wrong.

Leave it to liberals to be the first to point fingers and when they do, it's always in the opposite direction of where they should be pointing them.

How does a moment of silence for the Israeli athletes murdered by the Black Septembrists in 1972 become "a cause of division and spreading of racism between" nations? How about the racism of Black September when they did the killing?

Is it because it might make the antisemites mad?

pagegl

Well, there is that. Since they don't want to have a moment of silence for the Jewish athletes slaughtered by Palestinians, perhaps we should have a day of celebration for the Israeli agents who hunted down and killed those terrorists.

"Today rings are worn mostly for ornamental purposes, but there are many rings inscribed with magical or astrological symbols such as the zodiac and planetary signs, the ankh, the love and peace symbols, and
the STAR and CRESCENT, which are the typical symbols of WITCHCRAFT."
Page 195
"The pentagram is often seen together with a CRESCENT or HALF MOON. This is a very ancient symbol, which was popular among the Himayarites and other peoples of ARABIA, as well as among the Abyssinians and the TURKS. It appears in many Arabic flags and is one of the traditional symbols associated with WITCHCRAFT. Today the pentagram and the CRESCENT appear in the form of rings, earrings, necklaces, bracelets, brooches hair ornaments, and even key rings. Shirts. scarves, and even bumper stickers show the ancient symbols, loudly proclaiming a slow, but steady reawakening of old magical beliefs."

Rajoub and Rogge are two dishonorable men posing as honorable. We are wise to them. Nevertheless, the OLYMPIC Committee has been corrupt since its inception so it is easy to work hand in hand with Muslims who don't know the meaning of Honor. They kill their daughters because of this misconception, need I say more?

Ghostwriter

An overwhelming majority of Muslims scream for the deaths of innocent Americans,Muslim terrorists committing horrific attacks all over the world,including here,and we're not supposed to notice that or worse not talk about it? Is it any wonder that Islam has a negative image in America? It's precisely those actions that are CAUSING Islam's negative image here and the failure of American Muslims to condemn such actions.

Schlomotion

Mr. Spencer is as quick to throw a magnifying glass on the words of some unknown Palestinian guy who nobody heard from nor cares about and then throw the telescope on himself and Pamela Geller and look through the wrong end. Certainly just two people can be responsible for the rising tide of Islamophobia. Of course there are a lot more than two people, it is more like about 50 people with a core of about ten people, and a hard core of about five people. That's why DHFC pays so handsomely for Jihad Watch. Why disavow one's own role in fomenting hatred?

I suppose the passion play about the Munich Massacre just won't die down until the Olympics ends. That is understandable. The Israel Lobby wanted something and they did not get what they wanted. The did not get a prime space in that idiotic knockoff of a halftime show that opened the Olympics. They did not get Matt Lauer saying kitchy and mindless things about it while hiking up his knee socks. Israel lost a major propaganda opportunity. Instead, we get grumbling blog articles such as this one where Mr. Spencer tries to make Jacques Rogge an accomplice of the Muslim Brotherhood. Bathos.

Well,HermitLion,the reason I'm going to respond is because Schlockmotion's idiotic comments cry out for condemnation. He says the most vile things and those things need a firm response. His anti-Jewish drivel is more worthy of "Der Sturmer" or something like that than a respectable publication like this one.

Zionista

not enough Jews were murdered for your liking at the 72 olympics, huh schmo?

Schlomotion

How can you tell them apart? Look at the picture at the beginning of this article. Jibril Rajoub bears a striking resemblance to Benjamin Netanyahu. If Jews had murdered Muslims and not the other way 'round, I would feel just as bad. Murder is murder, and these guys all look alike.

Schlomotion

Just like at the colleges, where Mr. Spencer and Ms. Geller try to insult the crowd and then restrict all questions to agreeable, leading questions that do not contradict them, clearly also in this forum Mr. Spencer is a sacred cow who cannot be allowed to be contradicted in the comment section. I would like to know why Mr. Spencer cannot withstand scrutiny or contradiction. A simple debunking of this article gets deleted when the man reads the comment section! Amusing!

So which is the unbearable truth, you cowards? That DHFC pays handsomely for Mr. Spencer to write Islamophobic tripe? Was the offensive bit in my post that nobody has heard of or cares about one Jibril Rajoub and that Mr. Spencer is exaggerating? Was it too demanding to insist that Mr. Spencer not disavow in his own articles his own objectives and career in fomenting hatred? It is not allowable to call the Munich Massacre Movement a passion play? Is it verboten to call out the people who are still whining about the Olympics and the refused minute of silence? People are not allowed to call out the poor poker hand in this article's premise that Jacques Rogge is in cahoots with Islamists?

What sheer cowardice!

Ghostwriter

Is it too much for you to have a heart,Schlomotion? The Israelis wanted a moment of silence to honor their murdered athletes. That would have been the decent and humane thing to do. You've repeatedly been shown yourself to be a heartless monster who sides with the enemies of this country and it's people. I don't consider Israel to be an enemy of this country. On the other hand,I consider you an enemy of every decent person out there.
